Key Points
Endometrial cancer risk perception varies widely among participants, impacting their healthcare decisions.
Approximately 40% of BRCA1 and BRCA2 carriers reported being unaware of their increased endometrial cancer risk.
The analysis involved surveys distributed to genetic carriers, recording their awareness and understanding of cancer risks.
Highlighting this knowledge gap supports the need for enhanced education among genetic carrier populations.
